Objectives and benefits of the Consortium

The overall goal of the Consortium is to develop an effective, powerful, and flexible enterprise-wide software system for managing mission-critical materials information. The core focus is to maximize the productivity of materials and engineering personnel, while maintaining the quality, traceability, integrity, and security of materials data. Improving the quality of materials information management will improve the quality of decisions based on that information.

Benefits of membership include:

Membership in a world-leading collaborative project, providing networking opportunities with peers in leading engineering organizations and access to expertise in materials information technology
A license for GRANTA MI — the leading system for materials information management in engineering enterprises
Support from Granta in the implementation and use of this software
Formal input to the GRANTA MI development process
Training and networking through in-person Consortium meetings, telephone conferences, and web events
